History

“Judd also designed engines for a number of sports car racing teams, including the World Endurance Championship, Sports Racing World Cup, 24 Hours of Le Mans, and the American Le Mans Series.

Both V8 and V10 Judd engines made their way into several different single-seater and hillclimb cars, most notably that of Georg Plasa’s BMW 1-Series hillclimb race car. It used Judd’s newest LMP2 engine, the 3.4-liter “DB.” If you can find a V8 with a better exhaust note than this, please, let me know.

Loved by fans across Europe for his 12,000-rpm racing machine, Plasa was tragically killed in a crash during the 2011 Coppa Carotti hillclimb in Italy. Judd is still in business today, headquartered in Warwickshire, England. It offers V8 and V10 engines for all sorts of customer motorsport applications, as well as service for other racing engines. Maybe keep it in mind the next time you decide to build a race car.”

Hi Guys,

Can I ask that you please post your RR Name in this thread if you’d like to partake, there are loads of leaderboard entries already and having your names will make it much easier. Thanks!

Keen 🙂 I’ll only get on briefly this weekend though.

[Johann]

Geez, just cant get a good run in on this one, pretty decent on the first part but it falls apart towards the end of the run. How are you guys going?

Congrats to Paul Gerber who won the hotlap challenge with a time of 3:08.381, good run sir!

2nd place goes to Ryan Hill with a very respectable 3:11.278

[Ryan]

woop woop! WD Paul – I just couldn’t find those extra couple of seconds to pip you, was a tough run.

I have no flipping clue how the okes in division 1 achieved those times. Unreal

[Johann]

Same here, I cant even begin to imagine how they do it, you have to be on it 100% of the time and there is so little room for error on this track, its really intense.
